Living in Southern California makes it easy to have fun with our family and friends. We have a plethora of destinations to explore, as well as, some of the best amusement parks right in our own backyards. Summertime is perfect for hitting the road, planning a staycation and creating lasting memories! We were invited to celebrate the beginning of summer with Knott’s. My family and I will experience a Knott’s staycation for the first time and we are anxiously waiting!

Knott’s is the ideal adventure for families with children of all ages. Not only can you enjoy thrilling rides at the theme park this summer, but Knott’s Soak City’s opens May 17th – to help keep everyone cool! <Insert staycation here> There’s no reason to rush home when there’s so much to do! Your family can enjoy both parks and a delightful, overnight stay at the newly renovated Knott’s Berry Farm Hotel. The lush resort is steps away from the park. So, rest those achy feet, and enjoy a meal at the Amber Waves Restaurant & Bar at the hotel. You’ll find 320 deluxe rooms, featuring a SNOOPY-themed wing, where you get a tuck-in from the top-dog himself! The hotel also has a pool, dining options and much more! Speaking of dining, kids eat free when you book a package.

Parents can book Knott’s vacation online to save! There are four different packages to choose from; Ultimate; Supreme; Classic; and Bed & Breakfast. The classic package starts at $139! Book now and take up to four months to pay. I know that times are tough for families. So, taking the “extra time” to pay is a nice option if you want to defer payments.

If you are a frequent Knott’s visitor, then the Gold Season Pass is for you. The Pass includes admission to both parks, so you can spend your summer cooling off at Soak City! I love the lazy river or chillaxin in a cabana. But, the Pacific Spin is more my husband’s speed, while my daughter enjoys the wave pool. Lifeguards are on hand at the 13-acre, water park which always puts my mind at ease.

Stay tuned to our social media channels for more information on our Knott’s staycation later this month.
